vinyl record sale recap

Thanks to all the supporters for another successful vinyl record sale; we did get some rain toward the end so wrapped things up early. Thanks to the two college students who volunteered and help with the sale; they were enthusiastic helpers and even picked up a few records, though they didn't have a record player! They even expressed interest in volunteering at CHS, so it was all good. We sold a fair amount of records, not as many as last time, but still a decent amount. There are still plenty of interesting Americana / roots music selections left. Two guys will be coming over to look at the 45's, too. Thanks to the sound exchange; a friendly supportive business and kindred spirit in the love of vinyl and music of all genres. There were some nice conversations among the browsers and many repeat visitors, and ones eager for the summer sales when they get set up. This is stretching out into a pretty good "vinyl community" of folks connected around music, so that is nice to see. I get a little more information all the time. Mayor Newell stopped by! For interested folks, you can track me down to see about stopping by to look over the collection at your leisure; just making sure its a good time here at the neighborhood center (like not when the brownie/ girl scout troop is running around the place!) It was decided that the cover of the Porter Wagoner album when he is coming in on his girl friend on the couch with another man is the primo album cover of the day- a truly great staged album cover.
